The perfect metaphor for hospitality as businesses continue to embrace sustainability and pivot challenges into opportunities.

As we enter the second week of October, businesses can expect a continuation of the positive trends observed earlier in the month. Retail sales will likely remain strong as consumers continue their holiday shopping preparations. The tourism industry may also see a sustained increase in activity, particularly in popular destinations.
